BROKEN LEGS OF CATTLE
Experience Of n Farmer who Effected a
Cure In Those Cases

Experience OF a Farmer who Effected a
Cure In Those Cases
Some time ago | noticed in your pa
per the account of the cure Of a COW
with broken leg, and Of the doubts
Of many, Of the chances Of cure.
Since | have been on farm have had
three cases of broken legs, and in each
case they were healed. The first was
a two-ycar-old heifer, found in a rocky
pasture by some bee-hunters, with her
right hind leg broken about midway
between the knee and hoof. She was
put into a dump-cart, drawn home,
put in suitable place and had her leg
set. II soon healed, so that she walked
about and fed in the pasture, and it be-
came strong in short time.
The next was a threc-year old, broken
in nearly the same place, caused by
fighting, and being thrown over a cart
tongue, The leg was badly splintGred,
and | took out several pieces Of bone
with nippers before it healed, but she
got strong after some time. She was
in milk and we milkel her every day
and gave it to the pigs. Both of these
cases were in May.
The third was two-ycar old. She
broke her fore leg almost up to her
body, by stepping through hole in
the floor whore VIC were building a
new barn; this was in December. She
was put in a warm stable where she
could not turn. her leg put in place, an
old cast-on' bootleg drawn ON, with
holes cut TO admit Of bathing. Splin-
ters Of wood wound with cotton fan
mel were filled in as tight as convenient.
She was fed the same as the rest Of the
cattle, except now and then sclecing
choice lock Of hay for her, aud occa-
sionally giving a few oats, but not
many, fearing it might create fever.
She got her leg little out of place m
II few days, but not enough 10 make II
to alter it, We let it remain
30. She soon got up, and in short
time we allowed her to go to the trough
FOR exercise and drink. and before
spring she was put in the stanchions
with our other cattle and ran in the
pasture all summer. She Is now on the
place and bids fair to make a valuable
cow.-Cor. Country Gentleman.

Preparing Olive oil.

The olives are placed between two
mill-stones and ground into paste,
stones and all. This paste Is put in
tute bags, which are piled up in an
ordinary press and subjected 10 pres
sure furnished by screw. The oil
oozes through the bags, and is caught
in pans or vessels. and then bottled.
The most remarkable feature Of the
process Is that some four or hive differ
ent qualities are obtained from one lot
Of olives. This is explained by the fact
that the oil oozing out at first Is the re-
suit only Of slight pressure, conse-
quently Is sweeter and lacks the
ranker flavor Of tie second, third and
fourth grades, which partake more or
less Of the taste Of the olive stones.
The last grade is frequently SO rank
that II can not be used for eating pur-
poses, but instead Is used as the basic
matter In the manufacture Of soap, etc.
The residue or paste left after the oil
has been extracted undergoes chemical
treatment, and the oil obtained from
this Is used as a lubricant - Weekly
Herald Of Trade.

RUNNING BIRDS.
Habits Of These Pretty and PugnaoIou,
VlttIo ItIrda

hhplts OF These Pretty and fugnacious
Little Birds.
Perhaps the most remarkable feature
about the humming bird is the intelli-
gcnce IL displays in rendering its nest
inconspicuous. ANY nest taken at ran
dom is an illustration, and will be
found almost entirely covered with bits
OF lichon and other material, selected
manly 60 give the nest tho exact ap-
poatanco Of tho branch TO which IL is
attached, and in almost every case the
mimicry is complete.
AT the time when the orange trees
are rich with blossoms, the groves are
replendent with these little birds, that
are darting here and there, appearing
like great humble bees in the air.
About the bushes in every garden there
are always two or three dashing about,
and, small as they are, they are famous
for their fighting proclivities. Gencr-
ally two engage in = battle. Rising
high In the air, they fight fierccly, stab
bing each other with their powerful
little bills, often falling on the ground
and rolling over and over in the dust.
In some Of these contests one bird
will drop lifeless to the ground, to all
intents and purposes, and the other
will fly away. II now tho bird is taken
up and examined its heart will be found
beating, and in n few moments the
black beadlike eyes will open and
away IL will go. In fact. the little
creature, finding that it was getting
the worst Of it, had been playing
'possum" to escape.
Humming birds have been kept in
confinement, but it is quite rarely that
they live any length of time. The
question of their food is still mystery,
some writers claiming that they live
upon the sw, liquor obtained from
flowers; other, however, have found
Insects in them, and probably the latter
constitute the greater part of their
food. The little birds are often ac-
credited with intelligence they do not
possess. Thus il is said that upon the
approach of rain the mother bird will
fasten leaf upon the rest so that il
will form n lid to the nest as il were
This is very pretty fiction, but will
hardly stand investigation. and | have
never found one who has observed it,
though numbers Of persons have heard
OF it.-SdH Francisco Call.

A Marvellous Watch.

A watch having but one wheel is still
In existence in France, though manu-.
facturcd in Paris more than a hundred
years ago. This watch was presented
TO the National Institute in 1890, being
then in a deplorable state. but under
the skilful treatment Of an expert, har-
mony between the various organs was
successfully re-established, so that it Is
even now in going order. The great
wheel, which gives the watch its name,
occupies the bottom Of the case and the
center Of the plate; it has sixty teeth,
and Is thirty-three nm. in diameter;
lis axis carries two pinions. one OF
which receives the motive force from a
barrel, and the other carries the min.
ute work. The function Of this great
wheel is quadruple: First, II acts on .
lift' then on lever operating on an.
other destined TO lower the axis Of the
watch, and lastly on a third lever, the
latter serving TO return power TO the
great wheel at the moment when the
action relents by the rise Of the axis. -
